LA Art Show Opening Night Brought Art, Celebrity Energy And A Cause To DTLA
It’s Not You It’s Me Media attended the 2023 LA Art Show Opening Night Party, an art-meets-celebrity gala benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, with 15 percent of ticket sales going to the cause.
The night had that unmistakable Los Angeles Convention Center energy: big installations, polished gallery booths, camera-ready moments, and a crowd ready to wander through color, texture, spectacle, and conversation.
The LA Art Show is known as “The Most Comprehensive International Contemporary Art Show in America,” bringing together more than 200 galleries and vendors inside the Los Angeles Convention Center.
INYIM is no stranger to the LA Art Show, and this year we were excited to visit the brand-new galleries and artists across the five-day event. Opening night felt like a proper downtown swirl: collectors, artists, curious Angelenos, charity supporters, and the kind of dramatic art moments that make you stop mid-step.
INYIM Art Night Note
For a night of gallery-hopping in Los Angeles, think statement layers, comfortable shoes, a good tote, and something beautiful to take the inspiration home.

From the first pass through the show floor, the evening had range: sleek contemporary works, playful installations, gallery drama, and plenty of pieces that made the room feel less like a convention hall and more like a full visual playground.

Our TikTok from the opening-night party catches the quick-hit sparkle of the evening, from the art on the floor to the downtown LA crowd moving through it.
Opening night is where the show gets its extra shimmer. The art is the centerpiece, obviously, but the room also becomes a social map of the city: artists catching friends, media weaving through booths, collectors studying walls, and guests doing that very LA thing where they pretend not to stare while absolutely staring.
